Yes, It’s Been A While

As you have no doubt noticed, my Archives indicate my last post was in August. Yes, August. It would be an understatement to say that I’ve been distracted, but… well… you get the idea.

First, if you are reading this, thank you for being patient. I appreciate every one of you who follow. I’ve been developing some other project ideas and I’m now in a position to move them forward – and the Ultimate Blogging Toolkit will be a part of them. Stay tuned.

Secondly, for those of you who have asked about a Free Blog Review, again, thank you for staying with me and yes, I will be conducting each and every one of them.

Again, thank you and look for some new concepts to be introduced as part of the Ultimate Blogging Toolkit. I’ve missed this interaction, but very excited to be bringing you fresh perspectives in the near future.

Hi Dave,

So you were also offline in blogging like me for a while. I did not notice it because I was not hopping around during those days. The good thing is I did not miss reading any of your post.

Welcome back and happy blogging again.

Regular visitors to the Ultimate Blogging Toolkit will quickly see a new look. While changing the theme of a blog doesn’t automatically conjure a vision of “simplification,” it is indeed part of a strategy to do so.

Overdue List Updates

Diversify Your Monetization Strategy

Entrecard Paid Ads Confusion

about 1 year ago - 7 comments

As I continue to use Entrecard to further develop my network of fellow bloggers, I continue to see many forms of resistence to “Paid Ads.” There are many people who feel this is a “sell-out” but I hold a slightly different view. Let’s look at the economics.
First, understand I’m relatively new to Entrecard, so I More >

Entrecard Speed-Dropping

Entrecard card dropping is done for two basic reasons:
1) An acknowledgement of a visit, a view and a possible comment
2) A quick “speed-drop” to explore as many new blogs as possible.
Many Entrecard members publish “Drop Lists” of their favorite blogs. Others chronicle their “Top Droppers” list. My The “Above the Fold” page is my offering is to More >
